    I have a 1 yr old so I’ve gotten accustomed to being up at night plus I’m very nocturnal. Just hoping I score a chance to kick start my trucking career.

    This "starter" carrier appears to be hiring aggressively (at the moment, anyway) in your area:

    TransAm Trucking -- no experience needed -- class "A" cdl required -- Miami, FL

    or (the same thing):

    TransAm Recent CDL Graduate Driving Position - TransAm Trucking

    Footnotes:
    • The pay starts out on the low end -- but is raised every 3 months (in the first year) if you stay accident-free
    • The bad news: it's NOT a local job...you'll be out of town for a while, then back....lather, rinse...repeat
    • Don't feel all alone -- when I first started out, I had to kinda sorta take what I could get then, too :(
    ------

    Also: you may (or may not) be interested in attending the following recruiting event (with Schneider):

    Wed July 26, 2023 -- Schneider recruiting event -- Largo, FL

    Just a thought: if you make a good impression with them later there in Largo -- they just might make an exception for you, and hire you out of their current "normal" preferred areas. :dontknow:

    Go be a dock worker at an LTL and see if they’ll let you do first runs in a pup to get your feet wet.

    dock workers will get paid better than an OTR job imo that’ll leaven look in your direction

    Any luck yet? Did Schneider have anything you're interested in? I know you looked at intermodal with Schnedier.

    I like this dude. He’s got grit.

    I’m a crude oil driver in Texas so I’m biased to thinking that hazmat is where it’s at. It may not work for you immediately but all the different airports in Miami all need jet fuel. Someone has to get it there. After you lock down a starter gig this could be your next move and you could stay local.

    Miami International Airport
    Opa Locka Executive Airport
    Miami Executive Airport
    Homestead Airport
    Fort Lauderdale Intl. Airport

    if i haven't found something then ill look into that recruiting event that's not a bad idea. lol

    o_OTRANSAM. im gonna definitely way my options on them, not sure about them especially with the pay cpm and for time you have to be out on the road, if they at least had a better pay structure and i hear they mainly pushing lease so they make you suffer as a company to get you to turned over. i mean need a gig but :confused:.......... there's something out there....

    i cant bring home 500 to 700 a week, mainly because i have a ship to run (home & kids)
